    Default Spotted first Spyders of the season in PA

    My wife and I were out in the 'cage' today and we saw quite a few motorcycle in Central PA. The temps were around 60 degrees, not bad for February in PA. Visited a Harley dealer (Gettysburg) for a sniff and they must have had a couple hundred bikes in the parking lot. There was one brave rider on his Spyder RT though. Also saw three other Spyders out on the road (one on the PA Turnpike near the Mechanicsburg exit, one on Rt 15 between Gettysburg and Harrisburg, and one on the battlefield at Gettysburg). Mine's still in storage at a neighbor's garage, but any more days like this and ole 'Miss Pearl' will be out and about enjoying her 2016 adventures!!!

    I'm in Southern New Mexico. My wife and I have been on our Spyder for the past month. It still gets a little cold, but well worth it! I hope you can get Miss Pearl out there quick.

    If we can get some serious rain to wash the roads off; my bike is ready to go!

    The serious rain is what has been keeping me off the road. It has been either very cold and dry, or warm and wet. Just want to hit the road.

    None here yet. I am guessing they are waiting for me to get the ball rolling--two weeks or less--I am hoping.

    My "fun quotient" is now reached at about 20 degrees above zero.

    I did try 20 below zero one time in MN in the mid 60's though.

    Were you able to keep your hands warm, during this unusual Winter riding season?
